This is the question we are asked most often, and it deserves an honest answer.
Ukraine has been living through an armed conflict since 2022. We are not going to minimize that reality. What we can tell you, based on the cases we have accompanied, is that surrogacy programs are continuing to operate normally. Clinics are working in Kyiv and Lviv — the latter located in the west of the country, hundreds of kilometers from the front line, with a substantially calmer situation.
Intended parents travel at two specific moments: the first trip is for signing contracts and providing samples, and the second is for the birth. Each stay is short, and the support provided by our local partners covers transportation, accommodation, and all logistics.
If the situation in Kyiv is not considered suitable at the time of delivery, the clinic arranges for the birth to take place in Lviv instead. This possibility is anticipated and included in the contracts.
We do not recommend this destination to everyone. However, for those who value affordability, fast legal procedures, and a strong legal framework — and who are willing to make an informed decision within this context — Ukraine remains a very solid option.
